    Default Underage Citation

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania

    I was given a citation for underage drinking. I was picked up by the police and taken to the hospital for alcohol overdose treatment. I just received the citation in the mail. I know I am guilty of the offense. I need to know what I must do to make the charges as minimal as possible. What happens now that I have my citation?

    You can consult a local lawyer about the possibility of getting into a diversion program or getting deferred sentence.

    Default Re: Underage Citation

    After reading the citation, I realize it is not only an underage but also a public drunkeness citation as well. I know I can plead guilty and ask to be put into a youth offenders program and I will have my license suspended for 90 days. Will doing this take both charges off of my record? And how long do I have to send in my license after my hearing? It is almost summer time and I have a job. Is there any possibility I can defer my suspension until August?
